Parker's town is the gateway town. Nearly halfway south of the Central Canal, which runs from the northeast to the southwest of the kingdom, the city has a history of prosperity as a stadium town for worshippers heading for the main mountain of law and commerce, the Great Temple of Libra. It is the oldest city in the country. It's amazing because it's older than King's City. It's like Kyoto or Nara in Japan.

But the city in our eyes was far from the image of my ancient city.

"Welcome, welcome! Cheap! Cheap! Our fish were caught in the canal, not fresh!

"Oh, that girl over there, she's a farewell! Hey, this white powder is a popular new product in King's Landing! Put this on and your husband will fall in love again!

"Hey, there's a scratch on this! I'll buy it for you, so make it cheap!

It was a chaos. It was like the last day of the Hokkaido exhibition at Ameyoko or the department store in Ueno at the end of the year, or a time sale at a supermarket in Osaka. There are no shards such as the harshness of Ganmen Town.

On either side of the main street, stalls line the entrance to the Grand Shrine. A large crowd of people come and go there as if on an auspicious day, searching for products in full swing. In addition, there are stalls lined up in the same way on the street that went into the back of the road, and a lot of people are still shopping. This is the city of the gods of law and commerce.

"This city is as vibrant as ever. It's just a little dirty.

"Why, I don't think it's my first time here. Metcha is familiar or cozy.

Christella seems to have visited this city in the past. Has it been like this for a long time? Certainly, there are a lot of people and things, and there is no wrapping up like a flipped lego box. If you get lost, you'll be lost. You won't find it like the lego doll's sharp arm.

Kikka glances at her surroundings. This vibrant atmosphere will be pleasant for merchant sea elves. Aren't there a few sea elves living here?

However, there are other things besides sea elves that are a little unpleasant. As a matter of fact, the smell is hard.

Not only is there a good smell of food and fruit coming out of the shop, but there is also a bad smell that seems to be drifting from the back alley. It's like the New World of Osaka on the weekend. Wu's nose is twitching and he sneezes repeatedly. A good dog has a hard nose.

This city reminds me of Osaka somewhere, but I didn't actually stop by for any particular reason. I simply stopped by to relax and replenish my supplies as a relaxing destination for the trip. The lighter we are, the faster we can move, the least we can carry on our journey. That's why we need to replenish it all the time.

There is also a reason why people stop by various cities and villages and feel like they are "traveling".

Let's start by looking for a place to stay. If you leave your luggage, I'll buy it and leave early tomorrow morning.

This trip is using my planar magic to move at an unusual speed. In fact, it's only been two days from Border Sets to the city of Parker. Normally, no matter how fast it is, it will take five days. If you turn your head a little, you will realize that this is an unusual means of transportation, that is, magic. I would like to avoid it at this stage, when I have not yet won the title.

The move from Dolton to Border Sets was a little early, but not unusual. I stopped by Long Island on the way. It turned out just fine.

After leaving the city, I plan to head for the city of Oates along the canal. It's home to Luca and Samantha. There are streets along the canal, but these streets are quite busy. In other words, it is easy to see. Even so, my flat carriage stands out, so I'd like to leave at a time that is as unnoticeable as possible. In that case, it would be midnight or early morning, but since it seems like there is a rumor that there is something annoying about leaving in the middle of the night, there is inevitably only the option of leaving early in the morning.

"Oh, aren't you going to visit Master Libra? Baby."

"That's right. I became the owner of the inn, so shouldn't I say hello?

Samantha and Luca ask. Hmm, I see. Seriously, there's a god in this world. If you don't come to your knees and say hello, you might bend your head to God's sake. You've taken care of me a lot.

Well then, let's stop by and find a place to stay.

That's why you return to the temple from the side road. About two times along the way, Christella was about to bump into a man, but that was probably a slug. There's a lot of people everywhere. Christella seemed to have the money because she was a young lady.

I'm a nerd, but I don't want to cause futile disturbances on a patient journey. I deployed a repulsive force field just before I hit it twice, forcing it to change course. A man passing by with a little hesitation went away with his tongue slapped. Waste event avoidance success.

At the end of the approach, there were two huge gate pillars standing at the entrance of the temple, about 10 meters tall. The thickness is at least 1 m in diameter. Is the material granite? White sparkling rock, but no seams. All you got to do is scrape the whole thing out? I wonder if it was made by magic. There are no sidebars, but it's kind of like a torii house.

On the left and right, there are columns of the same material about 1m high and 30cm thick every few meters. There is no wall between the pillars. Looks like you can get it from anywhere.

It's a corner, so let's go in through the front gate pillar. Step into the grounds from the cobblestone that leads from the approach road.

"Hmm!?

In a moment, something really cold penetrates your spine! Your whole body's skin is bubbling and cold sweat is spreading! Breathing stops for a moment, and your eyes become pure white! Now I'm in a whole chicken state full of subprime.

What is this!? Magic!? I thought it was amazing when I was in Nagashima-san (Long Island), but this is a different digit!

In the past, Nagashima-san compared my magic amount to a transport container, but this is not such a level. It's like a dome stadium, no, a giant lake. It seems foolish to even guess how much there is.

The dark magic that fills the grounds is colorless. Unlike me, Christella, and Daisy's colorless, it's a truly invisible magic. Still, if you touch it, it's dense enough to be molded.

Is this the power of God, the absolute that shapes this world? I see, I can't reach my feet right now.

"Beet-sama, what are you doing!? I sweat so much!

Christella suddenly stopped moving, surprised me, and called out. Looks like Christella and the others can't feel this magic. I must have noticed because I had a sign. It's usually a convenient ability, but I envy everyone who can't use it just now.

The entrance and the pillars around it are probably meant to contain this magic. If this intense magic is scattered, this area will soon be demonized. No, maybe it's already been demonized. This is all magic, even if the area around this temple was a dungeon. In fact, the darkest part of the magic can be felt slightly below the front of the main hall and from the basement. Master Libra seems to be in the basement.

"No, it's okay. I was just a little nervous.

I return what is fine and go to the main hall with a good temper.

... I'm glad I went on a trip. You've been going too well, and you've become quite a tengu. It feels like my nose was snapped in cold water.

Now I have an opponent who can't stand up against me. Arrest and Namep will be killed. It's kind of you to realize that, god of driftstones. I was faithless in my previous life, but I think I'm going to be a pious Librarian in my present life.

In the meantime, let's excite the money. Do you sell razors or something? What do you mean, Mr. Ebbe? This is rude.
